Careers

At iQ we want to be honest and true to our roots. We come from a region full of conflict and turmoil, a region where the very basics of living are sometimes at risk. Historically, we have not had the luxury of learning from our pasts or planning for our future simply because the present had been so bleak. Because of this, the usage of technology is more than vital in our current landscape, especially in allowing the country to engage and communicate with the rest of the world.That is why it is so important for iQ to empower every single customer with the opportunities and tools to make their lives better. It is our goal to show our customers the power technology has, to change society. The impact that internet connectivity has already had in the country for individuals, businesses and start-ups truly make us proud of what we have achieved, and what we can achieve.We are set on investing in the most cutting-edge technologies and communications, so that the region can compete in the digital age. We use pioneering solutions to resolve issues in an area with countless problems.Above all, we want to promote a culture of tolerance, inclusion, and ambition. We want to Expand Your World!Regards, Asoz Rashid CEO

View All

As a result of war, unemployment, and corruption, Iraq has lagged behind the rest of the world in technological advancements. The majority of the population still lack a good level of digital literacy, which is why our Bit21 CSR is focused on changing this. A bit is the smallest increment of data, and this is where we begin to turn a new page in the future of 21st century Iraq, so that the coming generations will not be left behind.

Bit21 - A Brighter Future

As part of iQ's ongoing commitment to becoming and greener more sustainable, the company has launched its ambitious 2023 Green Initiative. One of the primary goals of this initiative is to power its sites with renewable energy. By investing in renewable power, iQ aims to reduce its dependence on non-renewable energy sources, decrease its carbon footprint, and contribute to a more sustainable future. We are also investing in more environmentally friendly projects and solutions, limiting our plastic usage and initiating environmentally friendly procedures across our sites as part of efforts to offset our net energy usage.
